recognize the Duncanville High School Pantherettes on their |

|
|
WHEREAS, This outstanding girls' basketball team cemented |
|
an already stellar reputation with its capture of the 2013 |

University Interscholastic League 5A girls basketball state |
|
championship; the triumph marks the second consecutive season in |
|
which the team has taken the state title; and |
|
|

|
recent win, which came with the 59-36 defeat of the Cibolo Steel |

|
WHEREAS, The team is coached by Cathy Self-Morgan, who is in |
|
The University of Texas Hall of Honor; several of her young |
|
athletes have received academic and athletic accolades this |
|
season, and as a team and as an outstanding basketball program, the |
|
Duncanville Pantherettes are indeed deserving of recognition; |
|
now, therefore, be it |
|
|
RESOLVED, That the Senate of the State of Texas, 83rd |
